Punjab CTI Final Merit List 2026: Check Today, Joining on 2 November and What to Carry

Punjab’s College Teaching Interns (CTI) recruitment for 2026–27 reaches its decisive stage today. According to the reported Higher Education Department (HED) Punjab schedule, the final merit list is due for display on 29 October 2026 — on the official CTI portal and on college notice boards — after a tentative list on 23 October, objections on 27–28 October, and interviews on 24–26 October. Successful candidates are then due to receive placement and join their assigned government colleges on 2 November 2026. If you applied for a CTI post, today is the day to check — but check in the right place, and check the right list.

This guide explains the full timeline, how merit was calculated, how to check the final list, what the stipend is, and what to carry for joining. One caution up front: the dates below are the schedule as reported by multiple education channels from the HED timeline. The portal and your college notice board are the final authority — if a list has not appeared yet when you check in the morning, check again during the day rather than trusting a screenshot circulating on social media.

Punjab CTI Final Merit List 2026 at a Glance

CTI posts are four-month teaching internships in government colleges, not permanent lectureships. That distinction matters for expectations: the stipend, the joining date and the college assignment all follow the internship schedule, and the final merit list is a selection register for these internships, not a permanent appointment order.

Punjab CTI Merit List Timeline: What Has Already Happened

The 2026–27 CTI cycle moved quickly, and candidates who missed a stage need to understand where they stand:

• Tentative merit list — 23 October 2026. HED Punjab displayed the tentative (provisional) merit list for CTI candidates on the official portal, with candidates directed to verify their names, merit positions and college-wise subject status online and on college notice boards.
• Interviews — 24–26 October 2026. Shortlisted candidates attended interviews at their colleges, carrying original documents. The interview carries 5 marks out of the 100-mark merit calculation.
• Objections — 27–28 October 2026. Candidates could submit objections or complaints about tentative merit calculations before the divisional redressal committees, with original academic degrees, domicile certificate and CTI experience letters as evidence.
• Final merit list — 29 October 2026. Corrected selection registers are due to be published online and on college notice boards today.
• Placement and joining — 2 November 2026. Successful candidates are due to receive placement offers and formally join their assigned government colleges.

Note the order honestly: interviews ran on 24–26 October, while the objections window ran on 27–28 October. That is the schedule as reported by the education channels covering this cycle. If your college followed a slightly different local order, your college’s notice board and the portal record for your own application are what count for you — not a general timeline.

A second caution: some older pages still circulate dates from an earlier CTI cycle, including September dates for tentative lists and objections. Those are not this cycle’s dates. This guide uses only the current 2026–27 cycle dates reported for October 2026, and the portal remains the final authority if any date shifts.

CTI Final Merit List Mein Naam Kaise Check Karein?

Final list check karne ka tareeqa ye hai:

1. cti-hep.punjab.gov.pk kholein — yehi official CTI portal hai. Kisi aur website par apna CNIC ya login details na dein.
2. Apne registered credentials se login karein ya Merit List section par jayein, jaisa portal par diya gaya ho.
3. Apna district, college aur subject select karein. CTI lists college-wise aur subject-wise hoti hain — sirf apna naam search karna kafi nahi; ye confirm karein ke aap apne hi college aur subject ki list dekh rahe hain.
4. Apna naam, CNIC aur merit position check karein. Apni academic marks, experience marks aur interview marks ka total apni application ke mutabiq milayein.
5. College notice board se bhi tasdeeq karein. Portal ke sath sath apne college ke notice board par lagi final list bhi check karein — dono ka milna zaroori hai.
6. Agar list nazar nahi aa rahi, to thori dair baad dobara check karein. Final list din ke doran display hoti hai; subah list na milna ye matlab nahi ke aap select nahi hue.
7. Screenshot ya photo mehfooz rakhein apni list entry ka, taake joining ke waqt koi confusion na ho.

Screenshots se bachne ki ahem wajah ye hai: social media par ghoomne wali list ki tasveer purani list, kisi aur college ki list, ya objections se pehle wali tentative list bhi ho sakti hai. Sirf portal aur apne college ke notice board ki list ko final samjhein.

How Is CTI Merit Calculated? The 100-Mark Formula

HED Punjab evaluates CTI applicants on a 100-mark merit framework. Understanding it helps you check whether your recorded merit is correct — and whether an objection was justified.

Two practical consequences follow. First, academic marks dominate: 85 of the 100 marks come from your degrees, so a small error in recorded academic marks can move your rank more than the interview does. That is why the objections window existed, and why cross-checking your recorded marks against your transcripts mattered. Second, your merit rank can differ from one college to another, because each college’s list is drawn from the candidates who applied for that college and subject. A rank that looks low at one college may be competitive at another — but only within the colleges you actually applied for.

CTI Stipend 2026: How Much Will Selected Interns Earn?

Selected College Teaching Interns receive a monthly stipend, not a regular government salary scale. The reported stipend for this cycle is:

• Rs 65,000 per month for candidates with a Masters or BS degree.
• Rs 75,000 per month for candidates with an MPhil or PhD degree.

The stipend applies to the internship period. It is not a permanent pay scale, and it does not by itself convert the internship into a permanent post. Candidates should confirm the exact stipend and payment route in their placement or joining instructions from their college, because the college’s joining letter is the document that governs their own case.

What to Do If Your Name Is on the Final Merit List

If you are selected, move quickly and in this order:

1. Confirm your selection twice — on the portal and on your college notice board. Note your college, subject and merit position.
2. Prepare your original documents now, before 2 November: original CNIC, original academic degrees and mark sheets, domicile certificate, and CTI experience letters if you claimed experience marks. Carry one set of attested photocopies as well, and recent passport-size photographs.
3. Report to your assigned college on the joining date, 2 November 2026, as directed in your placement instructions. Do not assume a different college or a later date — the assignment in the final list is the one that counts.
4. Read your joining instructions carefully for reporting time, the officer to report to, and any agreement or undertaking to sign. Keep a copy of everything you sign.
5. If anything in your selection entry looks wrong — wrong college, wrong subject, wrong degree level for stipend — raise it with your college immediately, before joining, with your documents as evidence. Errors are far easier to fix before joining than after.

What to Do If Your Name Is Not on the Final List

Not being on the final list is disappointing, but it is not always the end of the story. Check these points before concluding anything:

1. Check the right college and subject. Lists are college-wise and subject-wise. A name missing from one college’s list may appear on another college you applied for.
2. Check both sources. If the portal list and the notice board list differ, ask your college which one governs your case — do not rely on a screenshot.
3. Check whether the final list has actually been displayed yet. If you checked early on 29 October and the list was not up, check again later in the day.
4. If you filed an objection on 27–28 October, confirm its outcome with your college or the divisional redressal committee’s record, rather than assuming it was rejected.
5. Keep your application record safe. CTI cycles run regularly, and a complete record — application, tentative merit entry, interview attendance, objection if any — makes the next cycle far easier.

Do not pay anyone who promises to add your name to the final list. Merit lists are published by HED Punjab and the colleges, and no agent can insert a name for a fee. Anyone offering that is committing fraud.

Stay Safe: CTI Fraud Warnings

• No fee is charged at any stage of the CTI merit or joining process by HED Punjab. Anyone demanding a fee for selection, placement or joining is not acting for HED.
• Only cti-hep.punjab.gov.pk and your college notice board are the official sources for this cycle’s lists. Treat every other list, screenshot or WhatsApp forward as unverified until it matches those two sources.
• Never share your portal password, CNIC photo or original documents with anyone offering to “check” or “fix” your merit for you.
• Verify interview and joining instructions with your college directly, not through a social media page.
